Choosing your Schneider circuit breaker model
There are different types of models and different ratings of residual current circuit breakers:
- 10A or 16A circuit breakers are required for lighting circuits;
- 16A or 20A circuit breakers are used on circuits specific to electrical sockets;
- A 20A residual current device is ideal for a specialised circuit up to 4600W;
- From 7360W upwards, you will need to choose a 32A rating;
- If you exceed this power, choose a 40A rating up to 9200W.
Regarding their types:
- The AC type is intended for common electrical circuits;
- The A type protects specialised circuits (household appliances or electronic devices);
- The HI/HPI/SI types are intended for specific electrical devices that are rarely switched off.
